They say, “Forgive and Forget”...but did they mean everything?
She doesn’t know where to turn. Or who to trust. In fact, she doesn’t know anything at all. Jade (...or is that really her name?) is in fear for her life. She’s been told she was in an accident that made her lose her memory--but can she believe Clint, the tortured ER doctor with the piercing blue eyes? Or was she born without a memory, a severe case of XWHY Chromosome disease, as the sexy redheaded neurologist Layla is suggesting? And if Jade was in an accident, why does no part of her body hurt--except her heart?
Now a lanky Texan cowboy appears by Jade’s bedside at Louisiana General Hospital (at least, she thinks it’s Louisiana General Hospital) with baby triplets in his arms, claiming they’re hers. But are they? Or could the triplets really belong to her half-sister, Prissie…who may not be her half-sister at all?
Only Emeril, the tall Cajun PI her father has hired (…or is that man really her father?) can help Jade find the answers. When her father asks her to honor the promise he made to her dead mother by eating dirt while engaging in sexual acts with four different men simultaneously, Jade is torn between family loyalty and her attraction to Emeril, the cowboy, the doctor, and the redheaded neurologist--none of whom are the four men her father has designated to help her fulfill the old vow.
Jade snaps. She flees from Louisiana General in nothing but a scanty lace hospital gown that doesn’t quite tie together properly in the back. Emeril shoves her in his pickup truck under some tools and fodder bags, and they hit the road while he curses in sexy bad French. But the cowboy and his triplets are hot on their heels, and so are Jade’s father and the four men he’s picked.
Emeril takes Jade to his wizened grandmother’s shack on a dark bayou, hoping voodoo might bring back Jade’s memory. His grandmother’s powers find the truth: Jade’s past hides a terrible wrong she must forgive.
But at that moment, her pursuers corner them in the swampy alligator-infested shack.
Jade’s downer past and her perky future are suddenly revealed in a raging climax of gunfire, bluesy Cajun rhythms, diapers, and sensuous bayou dirt.
